In Homemade Noodles and Cars, Arlene, who has lived almost a century, tells the story of her family-from World War I and how it affected them, how her parents struggled to provide a home for their five children during the Great Depression, about growing up in Flint, Michigan, her family's role in World War II and meeting her soon-to-be husband when he came home from the war.

She and her husband, who was disabled in the war, started married life with a monthly income of $89 and had four babies in the four years that followed, a challenge they conquered together through love for each other.

Arlene tells how she met Christ and invited him into her heart as Lord and Savior-how that impacted her life-and shares how you can accept Christ too.

Arlene will make you laugh and maybe shed a tear, but if you enjoy true stories from a kinder, gentler time, "Homemade Noodles and Cars" should be in your book collection.
